atlas.phoenixcoin.org is stuck mining on block 1494351. The graph seems to show new blocks but 'recent blocks' is still showing 1494351 as the last, as well as the miner still working on that already found block. I really liked this P2Pool thing, payouts were finally in line with expectation, unlike most big pools.
That's just the website block listing, I don't think it has anything to do with the current block being mined. At one time several weeks ago, it was stuck on some block from three years ago, but the pool was still perfectly functional. They just fixed whatever was the problem, but perhaps it still gets "stuck" sometimes. Unfortunately I can't find any other pool but the blocks factory, who charge 5%! WTF? Anyone know of any other pools? I can solo mine in QT but I'm not synced yet, and it uses CPUMiner. Can I change the solo mining software and parameters in QT?
There's hexpool.com and altminer.net where you can mine directly for coins (both are still offline due to the yiimp hack), or the zpool multipool that has to go through a btc-pxc conversion on internal exchange (they're operational).

🛠 Mining pool update 🛠
https://altminer.netLow latency, scalable and secure mining pool infrastructure Currently only 0.45% fee (PROMO) Automatic payouts every 120 minutes No registration required
AltMiner.net was also attacked by the recent yiimp hacks (further information here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2163058.0) We were offline several days securing our servers, recreating all wallets and adding several additional layers of security. Not only we have now added an intrustion prevention system with anomaly detection, we also added DDoS protection and several further measures. Now we think it is again safe to mine with us and we thank you for your patience during those hard days. As a bonus for your trust we currently have lowered all fees to only 0.45%! If you have any questions feel free to contact us! ▶️▶️▶️ How to mine❓Use the following parameters at your preferred mining software (replace WALLET with your wallet address): -a neoscrypt -o stratum+tcp://eu1.altminer.net:4233 -u WALLET -p c=PXC

Dev, can you optimize blockchain by generating several large blocks with low difficulty that will be containing generation transactions in the amount of unspent outputs PXC for faster syncronization? Can you do it regular? Do you have money burn-address?
Such a thing you call a block chain optimisation requires a hard fork and isn't necessary at all. This coin is 4 years old, so yes, it takes some time to get sync'ed. Although not very much time, just a day or so. I can optimise the block index a bit more, but it isn't going to make a noticeable difference. atlas.phoenixcoin.org is stuck mining on block 1494351. The graph seems to show new blocks but 'recent blocks' is still showing 1494351 as the last, as well as the miner still working on that already found block.

Unfortunately I can't find any other pool but the blocks factory, who charge 5%! WTF? Anyone know of any other pools? I can solo mine in QT but I'm not synced yet, and it uses CPUMiner. Can I change the solo mining software and parameters in QT?
As far as I'm aware, my PXC p2pools are working well. The front end may display odd things sometimes, but all valid shares are accounted for and the payouts are fair. TBF used to charge 1.5% for PXC in the past, but we have what we have now.

There's a reason ghostlander/John picked the "Welcome to Hell" avatar... ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Back in 2013 when I picked up this coin from ashes, Bushstar told me that it wasn't worth the effort and going to cost me dearly. Most people care only about quick profits and don't give a damn about those who do the actual work no matter how big or small it is. He got his share of insults, too, though deserved none and just quit one day. Maybe I'm more thick skinned and learnt how to ignore the ignorant, but he was right in general.

You're welcome to mine PXC at my pool -- https://mpool.1ds.us/ I only charge 0.2%, paid hourly. Using ccminer, you'd run something like: ccminer -a neoscrypt -o stratum+tcp://mine.mpool.1ds.us:40000 -u PrknZtUFH7DqJH7jAR34azdbPr8XpQ3Vpe -p c=PXC,stats With your own PXC wallet address.

I have a small solo mining node. It seems the orphan rate is about 10% which isn't very low, but still acceptable. Just checked, TheBlocksFactory reports 1 orphan for the last 75 blocks which is 1.3%. What's yours?

Yup, that 6 hour period 'stuck' turned out ok. Further blocks found were accounted for. While we have you here, do you mind helping with a small problem? I thought I'd try solo mining now. The config sugestion works fine, but I get this error logging in to 127.0.0.1:9554 - {"result":null,"error":{"code":-32700,"message":"Parse error"},"id":null} I'm prompted to log in, which works. I've forwarded the port and made sure it's open. I actually have no idea what I'm supposed to be seeing from this 'portal'. I assume general info about the wallet/blockchain. Balance, blocks, difficulty etc. I've searched for hours (I try to do my best before asking questions), and the closest I can get to an answer is it's a JSON format issue? Or a problem calling the JSON info? There's heaps of posts about that error from the old days of btc cpu mining, but no real answer. One guy wrote his own little piece of code to retrieve the info, but I'm no programmer. It doesn't effect mining obv. I'd just like to log in and check the the various stats occasionally. I'm on windows. Thanks in advance for cluing me in. I find this all really interesting, but I definitely need to learn a lot more though. Phoenixcoin may be old, but it's a good opportunity to learn.

No more than 5 blocks every 2 minutes. That's quite lenient actually considering the 1.5 minute block target.

Such a thing you call a block chain optimisation requires a hard fork and isn't necessary at all. This coin is 4 years old, so yes, it takes some time to get sync'ed. Although not very much time, just a day or so. I can optimise the block index a bit more, but it isn't going to make a noticeable difference. Yeap, I understanding that it need to do hard fork, but you can programming to check actual block chain end switch it on each nodes. Now PXC have 1501947 blocks: http://explorer.phoenixcoin.org/chain/Phoenixcoinand everyone need to syncronized it so many time. After synchronization I have 1.29 GB blockchain files, with useless other people's transactions where's they getting mining rewards. I think will be better if anyone can set in config-file the parameters of custom first block, where was been included the first transaction to do download blockchain from this custom GENESIS block: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2F2ch.hk%2Fcc%2Fsrc%2F227289%2F15056023523950.jpg&t=665&c=BDrzSSSY00YR2A) Also local web-wallet can use blockchain on the nodes through any api, like waves lite client: https://github.com/wavesplatform/WavesGUI/releasesYou can test it if you want. No any blocks need for downloading to work. Low difficulty for mining need many traffic for synchonize on the stock exchange, so I don't see mining rewards on cryptopia, for expample. Also I don't see more stock exchanges for phoenixcoin, so you can add it here: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/volume/24-hour/https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/#marketsI can optimise the block index a bit more, but it isn't going to make a noticeable difference.
I think this is crucial for the liquidity of this coin. You can do it regular algorithmically. Also, if you interested how is possible to do blockchain optimization, you can read some ideas here: https://2ch.hk/cc/res/227289.html or here: http://arhivach.org/thread/295360/(need https://translate.google.com) Best regards.

1.3 gigs of disk space for 4 years of history isn't much actually. Ethereum gets over 200 gigs in just 2 years. Besides those transactions ain't that useless. The simplest thing is just to upload the blockchain data somewhere, so that people can synch fast if they really want to. An SPV wallet like Electrum would be also nice to have, but I guess it's more complicated.
